That I have not started and will probably need some work integrating a
hex converter (or maybe require the user to supply the converted
binary) and finding out how xen/qemu handles the configuration files.

Where do I modify the ranges? Is it the bunch of DWordMemory macros in
dsdt.asl? And how do I determine the range that I must use?

I did a quick test by appending pci=resource_alignment=[all the
pciback devices] to my boot command, it didn't seem to trigger any
changes in my bootlog nor the guest booting, is that the right option?

Come to think of it, why are there errors for BDF 00:05.0 and 00:06.0
when only 01:00.0 and 01:00.1 is passed in?
